Autofilling new password with confirmation in iOS 12

Question

I've added 3 UITextFields to create a new account by entering a username in email address format, a new password and a password confirmation. As suggested in Enabling Password AutoFill on a Text Input View. I have configured the username field like this

userTextField.textContentType = .username  
userTextField.keyboardType = .emailAddress

and the new password fields like this

newPasswordTextField.textContentType = .newPassword  
confirmPasswordTextField.textContentType = .newPassword

Now, when the users enters an email address as username the newPasswordTextField is pre-filled with a suggestion for a strong password (as expected), but the confirmPasswordTextField isn't filled with the same suggested password. When the user directly taps into the newPasswordTextField without entering a username before both newPasswordTextField and confirmPasswordTextField are pre-filled with the same suggested password (also as suggested).

How can i combine this both situations that after the user enters a username both password fields will be pre-filled with the same password?

Answer 1

I was able to do autocomplete for 2 password fields by declaring the contentType of the first field as: .password

1. .username
2. .password
3. .newPassword
